Amazing
Livvie was incredible and made my birthday treat extra special for me and my mum who she was really polite to. All staff are amazing
Spa break
We had this as a spa break, only 1 night, nice rooms, very clean, nice spa area and pool, friendly staff, lovely food the restaurant, service also excellent, especially the waitress Isla, who was so pleasant, helpful and professional, she made our meal experience wonderful, she deserves applauded, overall I would highly recommend this hotel
A very enjoyable stay.
Beautiful location, easy to reach and close to Leeds. Friendly and welcoming atmosphere. We had interconnecting rooms for a larger family which was easy to arrange. We also arranged an accessible room for a family member with walking difficulties. The children were made welcome in the dining room and there were appropriate menu choices. Everything was clean and well maintained and excellent value for money. A very enjoyable stay.
Extremely helpful staff in dining room
A great dining experience enhanced by the front of house dining team. Great service by Izzy for drinks and I think another lady called Izzy as I was seated for dinner and ordered my food but could not get a signal on my phone, so I asked if it was not to late to move to an area of the room with a better wifi signal. They just told me it was not a problem and moved my drinks etc, so excellent service. Also Emma, who was at the dining reception who helped me out with a phone charger. The food was excellent also!
Yorkshire at it’s finest
A lovely leisurely break in beautiful surroundings. The service was exceptional and the hotel very well maintained. We brought our dogs who enjoyed the facilities and friendly dog-loving nature of the hotel A special shout out for Imogen who looked after us for supper.
Beautiful hotel, service below expectations
Pros The hotel itself is very beautiful. The interiors are stunning, and the atmosphere is warm, cozy, and pleasant. Everything was clean, well presented, and visually impressive. The bar area is absolutely gorgeous, stylish, and very atmospheric. The cocktails were delicious The hotel grounds are very large. I believe that in summer this place must be especially enjoyable. The spa area is small. The water was warm, and there was a sauna and a steam room. The temperatures were comfortable and well balanced. That said, the swimming pool is very small, and the jacuzzi is also very small and almost always occupied. Cons I specifically booked a Deluxe Double Room (33 sqm), which was described this way on Booking.com at the time of reservation. However, we were initially accommodated in a small standard room with a connecting door to the neighboring room, which was a big disappointment. When I asked at reception why this happened, I did not receive a clear or professional explanation. I was told that all rooms are the same size and that only family rooms are larger. I can now see that the room size information on Booking.com has since been changed, which suggests there may have been an error in the original listing. However, this is clearly not the guest’s fault, and guests should not suffer because of such mistakes. After returning to the room, it became obvious that the soundproofing was extremely poor. Through the connecting door, we could clearly hear people in the neighboring room having loud sex. We returned to reception, where a different staff member offered us another room, but only for an additional charge, which we agreed to. As this stay was for my birthday, jubilee, this was a very unpleasant start and left a negative impression. Not only did we not receive the room we originally booked, but we also had to pay extra to get what should have been provided from the beginning. There was also no acknowledgment or attention to the fact that it was my special day. This was very disappointing, as I celebrate my birthday in hotels every year, in different cities and countries, and this was the first time I encountered such an indifferent attitude. In the spa area, we were given towels with dried blood stains, which raised serious concerns about hygiene. When we asked for replacement towels, the staff member changed them silently and with a visibly annoyed expression. Breakfast was also disappointing. The selection was very limited and basic, mostly a simple English breakfast set. There was only one coffee machine, which resulted in long queues. Overall, while the hotel itself is beautiful, the quality of service and overall experience was below expectations and closer to 3 out of 5 rather than the level suggested by the property.
Excellent dining experience
Excellent dining room experience and excellent service from a very well spoken, polite and friendly waiting staff, Izzy and Izzy.
Oulton Hall is the perfect getaway for us - Pros and cons just like everywhere but we will always come back!
My boyfriend and I often visit Oulton Hall hotel when we feel we need a break from modern life. We absolutely love staying in this Grade 2 listed building dating back to the 18th century and it always wows us whenever we stay - it is a beautiful piece of 18th century architecture and Engineering. Pros: - Stunning historical architecture and original features in and outside of the building. - Gorgeous maintained gardens and fountain. - Nature in its back gardens. - Plenty parking. - Hot breakfast options are tasty and good for vegetarians. - Bread and pastries/fresh juices and cereal options are wonderful. - Beautiful room and bathroom. - Complimentary water. - Comfortable bed. - Bar and lounge areas are beautiful and comfy. - Front of house staff are relatively friendly. - What appeared to be a senior member of staff/management (gentleman) was very friendly and helped me find my room! - Cleaning staff are exceptionally friendly. - The young lady who looked after us at dinner was such a pro and so warm and attentive (wish I got her name). Cons: -3 O'clock check in could be reduced to 2pm and check out at 12 rather than 11 will give you more time to relax and enjoy the hotel amenities and more time to decompress from the pressures of everyday life. - Check in can get busy which can trigger weary travelers who just want to make their most of their time away. - Treatment availability - I've never been able to enjoy a treatment unfortunately as I have never been lucky enough to secure an appointment (sometimes we book the hotel at last minute) I'm not sure how to resolve this (I'm not actually sure how to book a treatment prior). - Buffet breakfast is hard to keep hot so perhaps more emphasis on food rotation. - We get dressed up for Dinner but then were sat next to a couple wearing flip flops so perhaps a stricter dress code for the restaurant. - Always too many people in the spa - particularly the hot tub - not sure on a resolution for this - I don't think there is a lot you can do unfortunately. - Children in the spa (always a bugbear of mine in any spa hotel) the times children are allowed in is not proportionate to the time you have to relax in the spa and leaving in time to get ready for dinner - perhaps a shorter window for children's access to the spa might resolve this. - Phones in the spa - another issue I have is people using their phones to take selfies etc whilst other people are in the same vicinity, clad in swimwear is quite an intimate occasion for a lot of people and therefore you are no longer relaxing rather more stressing incase you end up in the background of somebody's Instagram post. To be fair to the management and staff of this hotel and being frankly honest the hotel is beautiful and the facilities are great and the food is lovely - For the slight cons that we have experienced generally rely on the good grace of other guests which is a very difficult balance for a hotel to manage as they need to cater for everybody's needs which is in itself difficult for example people on loud speaker on their phones during dinner or breakfast and children watching iPads without headphones - call me old fashioned or am I just well mannered? We will certainly continue to come back to Oulton Hall as it has become a special place for my boyfriend and I to come and get away from it all and it holds a special place in our hearts now - despite a few little qualms listed above we still love our weekends away at Oulton Hall and always recommend it to friends and family so for all the great times we have experienced at the hotel, thank you for all your hard work and I hope we see you again very soon.
Very nice hotel
We stayed for one night, the hotel is very nice and room was very clean and a good size, lounge area was comfortable, breakfast was very nice although there was a delay in all breakfast items coming to the area causing a que, cost of stay was very reasonable, and would stay again
Beautiful hotel
The location of the hotel was amazing, we stayed the night before we did the Emmerdale tour 30 minute drive away. The atmosphere of the hotel was beautiful,relaxing. We had a double room plenty of space the only down fall was we over looked all the bins,this did not ruin our stay. The hotel is spotless. We enjoyed the spa. The only thing I can really say which was a disappointment was people were smoking just outside the hotel door and there was quite a few butt ends in the beautiful plant pots the signage is not good enough to send them down the side where there is a ash tray is. But this does not reflect the quality of the hotel and the standard of service we received definitely will be returning
Great spa break
Lovely experience as usual. Been numerous times to Oulton Hall. Staff always friendly and polite. Hotel and the rooms are always nice and clean. Restaurant food for evening meal and breakfast is always really good. We use the spa which is always great. Good facilities available. I found the Relaxation Room was very messy with dirty towels and used cups everywhere which was disappointing to see. Will definitely return though
Measured review - overall a good stay
Lovely grounds and beautiful decor in reception and lobby areas. Great bar where stately manor meets contemporary feel. Good food at dinner and breakfast. Spa dated and very busy. Male restaurant staff on at breakfast miserable which was a stark contrast to female breakfast staff who were very friendly.
oliver
oliver was incredible at helping us choose our meal and really made our night special
Perfect afternoon tea served by friendly staff
We enjoyed a beautiful afternoon tea with excellent waiter service. Robbie was very attentive and friendly which completed the experience. Issam was very friendly too. The scones were the best I've ever tasted. Gorgeous views out onto the landscaped golf course.
OLIVER IS BEST
We stayed over the valentines weekend and were served by Oliver who was very attentive. Great wine recommendation and was great crack!
Valentine's Weekend
Nestled in the countryside near Rothwell, Oulton Hall is superbly located. We visited over the Valentines weekend so the hotel was very busy. However the rooms were satisfactory and just what was needed for a two night stay. The staff were very professional, competent and engaging and having made the journey from the south of England, it was all worthwhile and we had a thoroughly enjoyable time.
Great night with a friend
Fabulous stay. Spa was a bit busy but the food was awesome- gorgeous tomahawk steak to share and the service was spot on. Oliver in the restaurant was friendly, charming and attentive!
Wonderful
Great place, comfortable and welcoming. Came with family for half term break. Restaurant was great, Oliver was fab and made our night. He recommended the tomahawk steak which was a great shout!
Enjoyable family leisure stay
Good stay booked through a deal website. Loved the pool and leisure access and the staff friendliness all around. Spacious and well equipped bedroom. Included dinner menu in the deal was very good quality with a great wine selection and food choices. Breakfast was bit of a letdown due to the fact that there was no fresh bread/bakery items and was super excited that the coffee machine even had decaff options (as my wife is strictly decaff and this is never available in most places) however this was not working when we were there as either there weren't beans or grind in the machine, Was substituted to a basic sachet decaff option. All in all still a good stay due to the options even though we arent golfers, bet would be even better for those who do play as seemed like a really nice golf club location. Spa/Leisure and pools are a big bonus, option of EV charging is good to have and dinner was great, just think they could improve the breakfast. Have to say staff everywhere from reception, leisure club, dining and housekeeping made the stay very relaxing and enjoyable, thank you.
Another Great Visit To Oulton Hall
Great friendly staff from reception , bar and restaurant we arrived just after 12 noon knowing check in was not until 3.00pm we enquired if there were any rooms available and to our surprise there was so thanks to your staff for we were in our room by 12.30. Hotel was very clean and very well maintained which would expect as this was the fourth time we have stayed.
